My other series of articles is "Saving the Future" 1 through 6 I believe. This on the other hand is called Surviving the Future and I haven't decided whether to make this a series of articles too. Time will tell.
When I look into the future (since I'm a lifelong precognitive psychic) and I compare what I see with the 20th Century, I am fairly certain that the 21st Century is much more terrifying in a completely different way than the 20th Century.
Though there likely won't be BIG Wars like World War I or II, there likely will be millions of people dying from bad water, bad air, bad food and no water, no breathable air and no food. However, don't underestimate the death throws of those still alive to throw a rock or Molotov Cocktail (gasoline filled glass bottle with paper or cloth lit fuse) into buildings or vehicles. People if they are still alive and kicking will strike back often with their last breaths on those they consider responsible. It doesn't really matter whether those people in the end are responsible because people close to death are no longer rational especially if they are starving.
So, the biggest issue future humans(next 200 years) will deal with is starving humans and a degrading world ecosystem. It is possible that governments and infrastructure of North America, South America, Europe, India, China, Australia, Maybe Russia and a few other places might be able to keep their ecosystems from degrading into places where nothing can live anymore within 200 years. However, quite likely these areas and nations might be the only few places where governments will protect their ecologies sufficiently to enable renewables: air, water, trees, farmland, some animals, to continue to exist. Most other areas will have to be abandoned as well as areas near to many oceans that become dead zones that burp up air that makes people and animals sick after all ocean life dies that we are accustomed to.
In case you were wondering I'm not making all this up. It is understood by most scientists studying what is presently happening on earth now. There are already many ocean dead zones and all of them are growing quickly. For example, off of Oregon and off of New Orleans in the Gulf of Mexico and various other locations all over earth right now.
The Somalian piracy issue is caused by no real functioning government in Somalia since possibly 1990. The Movie "Blackhawk Down" symbolized how bad it was and is there with Gangs or Islamic Terrorists running most everything there now. It reminds me of Jabba, the Hut's world on Tatoine in the movie Star Wars. In otherwords, Mafia type rules or warlord rules.
This type of breakdown we will see in more and more nations during this present economic downturn worldwide.
So as you can see the problems we faced in the last Century are quite different than the ones we will face now. Of course, there will be many problems I can't foresee and many FUBAR situations. If you don't know what FUBAR means I"ll tell you what UBAR is and you can figure out the rest "Up beyond all recognition" and f is F-----. So if you use your imagination you will figure it out. This was coined during world war II, I believe likely when guys looked at their dead comrades after Pearl harbor in 1941.
I think in the present world economic breakdown there is one good thing about it. All the Madoff ponzi scams likely will collapse and most businesses not functioning right will go out of business. Hopefully, leaving only the strongest, meanest, most efficient businesses on earth left as we move into our next era of life on earth.
